Pet Friendly Rugs

A Pet Friendly Rug helps give life to living spaces while providing balance, warmth, a splash of color and texture. It makes no difference if you’re dealing with an open floor plan, small living room, or cozy master bedroom; there is always a perfect Pet Friendly Rug for each space in your home.

Pet-friendly is a term we use to describe a space or product that is either accommodating to pets and their owners, or not harmful to your pets themselves (likely, both!). Based on those definitions, a pet-friendly home, is a home that considers the needs of pet owners, and their furry friends, as part of the overall interior design theme. What many pet owners don't know is that just because you are aiming to make your home more pet-friendly, doesn't mean you have to sacrifice style or quality. Our Pet Friendly Rugs will help you get your pet-friendly home off to a solid start, for an affordable price, and with a quality, and function that is hard to beat. 

Similar to the other flooring in your home such as hardwood or traditional wall-to-wall carpet, Pet Friendly Rugs generally demand the correct attention in order to stay in tip-top shape. Cleaning your pet-friendly area rugs daily, and addressing stains in a timely manner will go a very long way towards keeping your rugs in incredible shape. We recommend that you clean rugs the instant spills happen so they do not set into the area rug.
